Venue (City, Stadium) | Stade de l'Aube |
Troyes host Le Mans at the Stade de l'Aube in a Ligue 1 matchup between two clubs that earned promotion together from the French second tier last season.
Troyes sit 17th in the standings and have been stuck in a real slump. A scoreless tie at Toulouse last time out at least stopped a run of five straight league defeats.
Le Mans sit 15th and haven't won a league game in their last three outings. Lucas Buadés scored in the 1-1 tie at Auxerre last time out.
Only two points separate these sides near the bottom of the Ligue 1 standings. Ties have been a theme in this head-to-head, with three of the previous meetings finishing level.
Troyes vs Le Mans Recent Results
Troyes haven't won any of their last six Ligue 1 games, and the problem is at the sharp end. They take plenty of shots and cross often, but finishing chances is a glaring weakness. Antoine Mille gives them bite in midfield, and their work at set pieces is the clearest path back to winning.
Le Mans have piled up ties in Ligue 1 and rarely turn them into wins, with only a single victory so far. Louis Mafouta is the focal point up front. Over his last five Ligue 1 outings, he has landed at least one shot on target four times, and Habib Diallo is set to partner him.

Our Troyes vs Le Mans same game parlay picks stack Mafouta shots, a Junior Diaz card, Le Mans on the Moneyline and Both Teams To Score: Yes, a deliberate upset swing.

Troyes vs Le Mans Talking Points
Stéphane Dumont's Troyes like to control games in the opposition's half, play long balls and get crosses in, and that should test a Patrick Videira side that struggles in the air. Le Mans' answer is the counter attack, their top strength, and Troyes are weak at defending it. Two of Habib Diallo's last three Ligue 1 appearances against Troyes have ended with him on the scoresheet, so his partnership with Mafouta is the one to watch.
